Took a friend for a ride a few years ago during the Superbowl halftime. He asked how fast it was and when we were pointed straight on the looong piece of road I stood on it. Backed off at 145 or so, I didn't really take the time to look much more than a glance. Was still pulling hard. The part that scared him though was the sideways lurch shifting into 4th at 120. The BFGs are worse by far at 50* than 70*.

I had a friend cruising at 135 from the bottom of hwy 78 along S2 along the straight sections. It was at that time he informed me we needed to check the alignment.

I am much more mature now with a wife and daughter. Though I will still stand on it in 1st and second. Only 1st though if my daughter is with me and I roll into the throttle even then. But boy does she have a BIG grin.
